We've scoured the world's red carpets to bring you the best frocks and shocks from Hollywood and beyond. Here are this week's must-see looks.

Diane Keaton

Love it: Yes, she's wearing socks with heels - but look how happy she is! Diane Keaton has long been a sartorial eccentric but she owns it. Maybe it's the festive spirit swaying me, but this picture makes me happy.

Hate it: In contrast, these tights make me sad. It may be irrational but I really can't handle a semi-opaque stocking. They're just so dowdy. Also, the top looks like those faux-tattoo sleeves that kids wear.

Blake Lively

Meh: Firstly, kudos to Blake for getting dolled up and putting in an appearance at the Women of Worth Awards. I can only imagine it's not the most appealing prospect when eight months pregnant. And fair play, she looks radiant as ever. But I'm really not on board with anything that leaves the stretched sheen of elastane sparkling in the light.

Lily Collins

Love it: I cannot even express how much I love this. Love, love, love! She is a tangerine dream and it is glorious. And unexpected. Miss Collins hasn't got the best track record in the style stakes, which makes this even sweeter.

Paloma Faith

Hate it: I get that this is festive but wow, that's a lot of red. Admittedly, the red carpet isn't her fault - but the matching shoes, frock and carpet is just all too much. Especially when paired with nude nana tights.

Keira Knightley

So close: Keira was also keeping with the festive theme at the British Independent Film Awards. While this is more subtle, I can't help but feel the Christmas fluff is ruining this otherwise quite lovely frock.
